'Do you go to games' is the last refuge of fools who don't have anything to add to the debate. I'm sure the very many other KDS posters I've met at games/Celtic pubs over the last thirteen years will verify my attendance at Celtic Park

I like stats and find them interesting but how do they measure someone being in position? Or passing to the wrong teammate? Often Ajer has needed to make mad slide challenges because he's lost his man. He does have the makings of a fantastic big player but Boyata to me is the better defender at the moment. |

Then you'll know that Ajer makes errors. A bunch of them. Positionally, not being on the cover, being outmuscled at the straight ball, misjudging headers, being exposed in the full back position, clearances that don't get beyond opposing midfielders and occasionally, passing. Less showy than the odd Boyata clanger with most leading to less damage, but they are there if you care to watch. All will make errors (Jozo probably makes the most) and Ajer's are fixable with experience. |

Sure. He's more physical and much more experienced. I think he makes more mistakes too - and they always seem to cost us in a way that Ajer's doesnt. |

It’s more about the fact you see more in person, rather than following the ball on TV. Doesn’t seem to make much difference in your case |

so is brown a bombscare? i can straight away think of 3 times he gifted goals last year. players make mistakes, its especially noticeable in defensive areas. lustig has made errors, simunovic cost plenty of goals last year, tierney has made mistakes but they arent constantly rounded on about it by some on here. |

There’s one proper ‘bombscare’ in the Celtic 1st team. We all know who it is. |

Boyata is a good defender. Great positioning, heading and tackling ability. Just regularly effs up in defence so the only person that can make up for him is the goalie. When a midfielder cocks up at least they have 2 CB's to help cover. |

tebilly was a bombscare, efe had it in him too boyata is nowhere near there levels and a far better player. you either dont know the meaning of the word bombscare or have a personal hatred of boyata that clouds your judgement, i think we all know which one it is

I reckon Boyata's tend to be more catastrophic as they're often when he's stepping forward to make a pass and the rest of the team are on the front foot etc. Ajer's errors were more numerous but generally happened when we were defending as a team so didn't cost us. |

We need a new centre back, be that one or two. Boyata is a liability and Jozo isn't the centre back we all thought he'd be. |

Agree with this. Boyata’s occasional howler is usually a daft pass across the back line that gets cut out, or something equally visible from our own possession. Textbook bombscare stuff, but which he has significantly reduced. Ajer’s regular mistakes are basic defensive stuff when the other team have the ball, and which can hopefully be coached out of him. |
